Los Angelics

“I could jam to this in my car,” said one of our listeners upon hearing “Live Like Kings,” a vibrant, anthemic electro-pop rocker fronted by a pair of frisky female singers. We can also easily imagine the song’s hand-clapping, fist-pumping chant would boost a teen-comedy’s party scene. This quartet’s colorful vision continues on “Dangerous,” though it is slower-paced and has a vintage throwback synth palette. And we also hear a pronounced Gwen Stefani soundalike quality in one of the lead ladies. The group’s unerring level of energy continues with “Growing Young,” which again features an agile vocal arrangement. A bold, electric vision propels this act, and while they’re not reinventing the wheel they’re surely riding high on it.

Founded in 1977 on the principle of bridging the gap between “the street and the elite,” Music Connection has grown from a popular print publication into a spectrum of products and services that address the wants and needs of musicians, the music tech community and industry support services.
